Northern provinces feature traces of
pre-Columbian cultures, mingled
with ruins of natives’ villages, as
well as forts and constructions
dating back to the time of the
Conquest and Colonization.
Time seems to stand still in the high
plateau of the Puna, a land full of
mountain ranges, steep mountain
paths, and gorges.
Villages have been built in the small valleys. Multi-coloured
and monochromatic hills covered with huge cactuses on the
slopes surround the village.
This region offers landscapes full of contrast for tourists to
enjoy, from the high peaks to the plains, the salt pans, and the
subtropical rain forests, where Latin American culture took
root.

 Cuyo - “desert country” in the Indian language -
is the region of the high peaks, the snow-covered
volcanoes, and the large wilderness spreading
from the Andes mountain range and foothills to
the steppe.
The visit to Ischigualasto - Talampaya Natural
Parks, is a true journey to the dinosaurs era.
Ischigualasto, also known as “Valle de la Luna”
(Moon Valley) because of the amazing diversity
of forms and colours of its landscape shaped by
erosion, is one of the world’s most important
paleontologic sites. The Talampaya River
Canyon reveals amazing multi-shaped layers in
its high red walls.
 Pink flamingos, Andean ducks, “vicuñas” and “guanacos” cohabit
freely in parks and natural reserves, while condors fly over the area.
The region displays the full splendour of the Central Andean Range.
The Aconcagua (6.959 m) is the highest peak in the Western
Hemisphere, and its steep slopes are renown and respected by
mountain climbers from all over the world.
In the valleys of La Rioja, Mendoza and San Juan, among leaves of
grapevines, farms and wineries, visitors can go along the Wine Road,
an attraction of international renown.

 The Andes mountain range
shows its beauty in the
Patagonian provinces.
Millennial silent forests with
native vegetable species are
extended along the shores of
glistening waters. On top of
the mountains, nature
overflows with granite peaks
and ice fields spreading their
glacier tongues into lakes of
unsurpassable beauty.
 Imposing mammals and sea birds, half-way between real
life and fantasy, spend certain seasons on the rough coasts
of Patagonia where they complete part of their life cycle.
Seals colonies play on the islets and sandbanks. The
world’s most important southern elephant seal continental
colony is located in Peninsula Valdés. Every year,
southern right whales come to Nuevo and San José gulfs
to breed. Patagonian hares, “ñandúes” (South American
ostrich) and “guanacos” run about the steppes, and the
largest colony of Magellanic penguins in the world is
located in Punta Tombo. This life cycle repeated since
time immemorial, unfolds itself in front of the astonished
visitors’ eyes.
 In the south, Tierra del Fuego and the
World’s southernmost city, Ushuaia, are
the gateway towards the vast and
mysterious Antarctica.

 Córdoba is one of the most
important economic centers
in the country. It has with
many contrasting features—
it is both a cultural and
tourist-like destination, a
traditional and modern city,
with an industrialized as well
as a home-made production.
A hilly landscape and favorable weather conditions are distinctive
in Córdoba, a place where natural sceneries are mixed with
colonial monuments. Little towns, historical antiques and cave
paintings are found in a pleasant valley landscape, high plains and
gorges.
Cordoba’s hills rise toward the northwestern Pampas plains. They
are part of the “Sierras Pampeanas” mountain range, reaching
2,790 m high in the Champaqui hill. All these hills are particularly
appealing because of their fertile valleys, deserts and salt mines.
All along the way northward, you will find many 17th and 18th
century chapels and farmhouses inherited from the Jesuits.

 Buenos Aires is one of the world’s
biggest cities in which, including the
suburbs, there are over 11,000,000
inhabitants. It is also the most elegant
and active city in South America and the
one that summarizes the heterogeneous
essence of Argentines the best. With a
modern, hip structure and dynamic
activity, it has managed to preserve old
traditions and endearing corners.
 Visitors feel fascinated because of its environment,
because neighborhoods have all different personalities,
and also because people are warm and there is a wide
range of shopping and cultural proposals. Buenos Aires is
surrounded by the splendid Argentine nature and it is the
great cosmopolitan door to South America.
 The Province of Buenos Aires invites you to the countryside and its
traditions, the sun and the sea, the serenity and the adventure, the delta
and its mysteries. There are estancias (large cattle ranches) featuring a
great deal of architectural styles, located in the middle of the Pampas
Plains— a magical vast area of far-off horizons, where you may breathe
history and Creole customs all around. Kilometers of sand caressed by
the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, endless dunes, lonely and crowded
beaches, sophisticated and busy nights— everywhere you will be
amazed. The peaceful golf courses, the vertigo paragliding rides and
the adventure of trekking— everything is possible in the hilly region of
Tandil and Ventana. They are very different landscapes from each other
and distant from the mouth of the Paraná River, where endless islands
also invite you to unwind and live unexpected adventures.
